Haley

Just have to say that I love what we are seeing in the new offense. This guy has given plays that take a lot of the pressure off of the line and Ben, brought Miller back into the receiving ranks, put some wrinkle plays in, found that we have an underneath game, put running back into the crosshairs of the opposing defenses, all while letting Ben be Ben.

As for the second half losing stuff, some of it has to fall on the defense. (enter Ovido in 3, 2, 1, ....)

I don't agree with this. Why can't it fall on the offense to keep scoring? ALWAYS has to fall on the defense for most Steelers fans even though that unit carried this team for the last decade. Now that ALL the rules favor the offense, then the offense can keep scoring instead of putting 20 up on a team in a half then turtling up.

I thought that Haley did a particularly nice drop on the first drive. The WR screen that went to Heath was an excellent call. You know that Washington had to be looking for the screen, and that call takes advantage of that. I also liked the goal line play actions.

Haley has put together a balanced offense, and I feel like it has more room to continue growing.
